In Chrysanthi’s original proposal of Europic, he argued not only that every morpheme of every word should be separated by hyphens, but also that all elements of every ''phrase'' should be joined by them as well. The result was a bit reminiscent of the transcription of Hittite, known to be one of his interests, which probably inspired the idea. Adverbs and particles were joined to their verbs, and noun phrases were completely connected from preposition through adjective to plural particle. For example, consider the following common phrase: ‘Emilio used to go to France to buy green kazoos for her.’ | In Chrysanthi’s original proposal of Europic, he argued not only that every morpheme of every word should be separated by hyphens, but also that all elements of every ''phrase'' should be joined by them as well.
